I'm currently shooting a Mathews Legacy...prior to that it was a Feathermax and before that a Golden Eagle evolution.
I have owned a Hoyt in there, but like my Mathews. I kept the Feathermax for an emergency, but have never needed it as the Legacy hasn't let me down yet....

A Hoyt 45-60 compound that I bought in the early 1990s. All the best...

Currently have two Mathews (LX and a Swithback). Before that a Golden Eagle and Whitetail. The Mathews are hard to beat. After several thousand shots I did have a limb split on the LX. Crying or Very sad Took it into the shop and they replaced it while I waited. No trouble after that.

I'm shooting a Mathews Legacy 70#, been a great bow. If I ever wear it out I'll get another Mathews. We're suppose to go to a 3-D shoot this morning, waiting for it to warm up a bit. Highs today about 23... Burrrrr.
